I flip back and forth between Brave and Tor Browser, depending on which one appears less fingerprintable; and I’ve disabled all of the analytics.
- Comment on The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScript 1 day ago:
I generally do the same. In fact, on desktop, uBO is set to hard mode. Unfortunately, I do need to access these sites from time to time.
- Comment on The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScript 1 day ago:
HTML and CSS can do quite a lot, and you can use
cgi-bin
for some scripting.Of course, it’s not a perfect alternative. JavaScript is sometimes the only option; but a website like the one I was trying to use could easily have just been a static site.

Yay, trophic cascade due to invasive species!
- Comment on VPS provider 2 weeks ago:
I’m using OVHcloud. It’s pretty good and the pricing is decent. They’re also based in the EU, which is good (although I think the EU were possibly working on a mass surveillance bill or something; idk, everyone seems to be doing that these days).

- Comment on YouTube most popular first TV destination for children, Ofcom finds 4 weeks ago:
BBC One usually has documentaries that kids aren’t interested by, and BBC Two tends to fill the daytime with Flog It! and Homes Under The Hammer. ITV 1 is the same, only with Dickinson’s Real Deal and trashy reality shows. Channel 4 is like BBC One: uninteresting documentaries and high-brow reality. Channel 5 is more reality. I have never seen a local TV provider worth watching (I live in north east England and central Scotland).
- Comment on YouTube most popular first TV destination for children, Ofcom finds 4 weeks ago:
Well of course it is. Broadcast TV is mostly shit, and other streaming services are often more adult-oriented.

Here’s a thread about the AI story: neuromatch.social/…/114896238613320042
I do have further reasons, but they aren’t relevant to this discussion and, frankly, I can’t be arsed to argue with any more people right now.
